Gorilla Biscuits - Pretty heavy stuff

Hardcore punk band from
New York City that apes its name from the drug methaqualone (also called mandrax). Pills
with this active ingredient became fashionable in the sixties and seventies of
the last century; they were intended to suppress insomnia, relax the muscles and
bring about a narcotic effect. Because of their large size the pills - also
known as quaaludes – were mockingly called ape shit. Later this was softened a
bit to gorilla biscuits, the meaning remained the same though: monkey droppings.
